Did you know Glenn is actually my biggest competitor when it comes to copywriter ranking on Google?
We regularly wrestle for the top spot like two eager otters.
So why would I let him guest post on my website and give him my lovely link juice?
Well because he writes a mean post, he shares his link juice freely and he’s a fellow coastie! So take it away Glenn, mi casa es su casa.
Freelance copywriting is tough. Not tough like being a construction worker or an athlete. Tough like being that kid from the Far Side who asks to be excused from class ‘coz his brain’s full.
That’s pretty much how I’ve felt every day for the past 11 years.
As a freelance copywriter, you’ll do long hours. You’ll worry all the time. You’ll feel like you’re never on top of things. You’ll forget what it was like to leave work at work. You’ll spend entire months completely broke, wondering if you’re fooling yourself. You’ll discover the full potential of the Internet to an entrepreneur, only to realise you have neither the time nor the funds to be one. You’ll become a different person.
So you have to ask yourself some tough questions before you jump in…
